Surgical intervention for combined retinal-retinal pigment epithelial hamartoma.

D L Sappenfield1, K A Gitter.   

Abstract

A young woman was followed for over 20 years with a macular combined hamartoma of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium. When vision deteriorated due to contracture of an overlying epiretinal membrane, a pars plana vitrectomy with removal of the membrane was performed. Decreased vascular tortuosity and retinal vascular leakage resulted in postoperative improvement of visual acuity. Selected patients with combined retinal and retinal pigment epithelial hamartomas may benefit from removal of epiretinal membranes.
